Nchara:
Do you know what they mean by the term  setting the record (any record at all) straight? If you hear that the president of Ghana is dead whereas it is false rumour, would you not attempt to set the record straight? Now tell me, what has USA, BRitain, etc got to do with Nigerian problem yet we discuss them everyday? Is this the first topic on Ghana that you are reading here?

look

no one care about ghana,,, i tell u that

a nigerian in nigeria only cares about nigeria and it's situation

why would a nigerian care about ghanian university

well all in all thanks for the information

[quote author=Akin-Egba link=topic=564986.msg7303040#msg7303040 date=1291909139]This ho, why do I read my name on your lips of a disgrace every now and then? You must be sleeping and waking with me every passing day. Pity, I am not interested in you so why don't you get the message? Soon you will call me your father or your uncle. You can keep deluding yourself all you want, but is it not really hypocritical that you who post as FL gator (gutter) as well as this stu-pid name of yours have the temerity to talk about two ids even when you are absolutely unsure of what you are claiming? They said you smell, but please do not do so around me.[/quote]i beg sharrp dai, ain't u just another southerner but no yoruba

I just dey pity you.

Don't argue with a fool, he will just drag you to his level and then defeat you there.

@Alj Harem

You are big disgrace to Ahmadu Bello. Do you think the Yorubas in Kwara are begging you to be part of them? Ask Becomerich to show you how small you north will be if we use your definition. I don't have time to handle your case now sha.

Abeg who will help me translate my post in Hausa to him? who will help explain the difference between 'region' and 'tribe' to him in Hausa?
Who will help ask him in Hausa that 'was Sunday Awoniyi not a Northerner, and Chairman on [b]AREWA consultative forum?

[/b]

i ask why would a yoruba man become the chairman of arewa,,,,,,why,,,,,,,,,,why,,,,,,,,whhyyyyy

is he a northerner,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,answer=NO

but yet he is ruling us

how can someone that knows nothing about the north be the one ruling the north

i tell u yorubas are the ones ruling nigeria

how can u explain sunday awoniyi ruling northerns

has any northerner rule afenifere , yce or opc before

sometime i think some of our northern leaders are dumb or blind to see this things i see

even in SW universities no northerners has been the student president not to talk of leader

even in kwara or kogi have northerners been treated well there,,,,,answer is no

jarus pls can u explain why no northerner has been the leader of any yoruba organisation

Jarus:
Kwarans are 100% Northerners, stop exposing your ignorance.
Perhaps you need a lecture on difference between region and ethnicity. Region: North, South, East, West Ethnicity: Yoruba, Hausa, Ibo etc
What is today Kwara has always been classified as North since 1914. During the provincial era pre-independence, Ilorin province(now Kwara and Kogi) was undr Northern region. During the regional system, Kwara was part of Northern region. Till today, Kwara is still North. Or can you count the 19 Northern states for me?

You are obviously mistaking Hausa/Fulani with North. Whether a place is North or South is not a natural classification like ethnicity. A mistake, so to speak, was made in 1914 and Ilorin province was classified as North, and till today, it still is. Taking it to South will involve official proclamation and boundary adjustment.

Being a northerner doesn't mean you're Hausa/Fulani. You can be a Yoruba and a Northerner in as much as you come from a state classified as North. Kwara and Kogi are such. Late Chief Sunday Awoniyi, a Yoruba man from Kogi, was a dyed-in-the-wood Sardauna loyalist and later Chairman of Arewa Consultative forum. Can a non-Arewa person be the Chairman of Arewa Forum if he is not from Arewa?

I am from Kwara, a Yoruba, and officially a Northerner, because that is what my state has been classified as since 1914.
Kajiko?

jarus pls can i ask when u became a northerner

the northerners i know are kanuri, hausa, fulani, and other minority

when did the yorubas become northerners i ask

so opc in kwara did not know u are arewa before they start kill our brothers

yorubas think they are clever

they are the only group that has a state in 4 zones in nigeria to keep control of things

1 kwara northern state

2 kogi midle belt

3. a of edo because of cultural ties,,,,mid-west

4. ondo and rivers state because of itsekiri,,,,,,south state


when will u yorubas be trusted

when will u stop this impersonation

i tell u u can take ur kwara and kogi and stop disuniting the north

in the core north like borno and sokoto we all know that yorubas are not true muslim and are not truth northerners

how can u be a northerner when u support opc in kwara and kogi how

or do u think we are stu-pid

Nsiman:
Must all elites in nigeria belong to the pdp?

o boy u harsh o

ROSSIKE:
Since independence in 1960, there's been no part of Nigeria, affluent or otherwise, that's been dominated by foreigners.

That's not about to change with Eko Atlantic.

Nigeria is for Nigerians.

good but will the awori people enjoy the project not just to be taken for the very rich

igbobuigbo:
How many of your own communities have you built? You silly northerners have ruled Nigeria since independence and yet you remain the poorest, most illiterate, most diseased human beings in the world. I read where a Northern youth leader asked the question of what northern leaders have done with power.

guy it has nothing to do with northerners but nigerian leaders

so the south that have no illiterates were are they?
##

are they by far better than us?

or just because of lagos which is a yorubaland u think south is better than north

i tell u come to abuja

come to kaduna

come to borno or jigawa state and see thing that u  have never seen before

see thing how developed they are

go to some parts in sokoto and see thing there

u think because u see almajiris in the north just like ther are "youths" in the south and abegero in the west u think they are not develop

i dey laugh ooooo

Blazay:
^^^

When you get to the North, you use terms like almajiris.
Then, when you get to the South the term changes to "youths". . .

C[b]orny inninnit?[/b]

very


youth=abegero

Blazay:
Oh dear.
Not again.


Why don't the Igbos just concentrate on building their communities instead of eyeing the presidential seat come 2015?

Why is it so important?

Is it a matter of life and death?

gbam gbam gbam gbam
#

thank u oooo

all nigeria want is development in all sector and zone

we do not care of his ethnicity unless he is like ojukwu

all i just want is for nigeria to be a great nation that alllllllll

it good

but do the indigines of lagos get to enjoy is project or foreigners, and igbos will just come and ,

igbobuigbo:
Assuming PDP is unremovable, as they appear to be:

Question: If Jonathan agrees to hand over power to the North in 2015, where does that leave Igbos?

Answer: It leaves them in the lurch until 2023

Question: If Atiku wins where does it leave Igbos

Answer: It leaves them till 2015, or at the latest, 2019. Yet they will enjoy VP-ship during the entire period.


Therefore, Igbos be wise.

1 u are not igbo,,,, u are either ijaw or yoruba

2. jonathan is igbos best bet but i do not support open endorsement as it does not take leave room for error

3. i think u have a very serious problem with u brother being the president ,,,,,,,, what a backward mentality

olabukola:
Ibo Made, they should check the engine it might be vespa engine.

but this is good news indeed

what is the meaning of this conspiracy

i love the yorubas but they are just too conserved

Abagworo:
it is good for him to be back in Nigeria.There is no place like home.Why do we act like Nigeria is the worst place on earth?

are u in nigeria

Privy:
Thanks guys and my sincere apology to kodewrita for taking some time in answering your questions.

What am I am going to do for Nigeria in the next five years -
1. I have already stopped thinking negatively about her. Thus I will start thinking positively about her.
2. I will start encouraging others to think and act to positively towards Nigerians and Nigeria.
3. A part of my personal income and the profit of my company proceeds (I will start one soon) will be used to develop some part of Nigera (as a private initiative) without profiting from the effort.
4. I have personally renounced every illegality and keep encouraging people to do things the right way.
5. I believe that professionals can play a big role in changing Nigeria. I will keep rallying those I meet in life to participating in changing Nigeria starting from themselves.
6. I will definitely go back to Nigeria.

On the second question, I cannot be able to do that since I am not currently in Nigeria. However, I will keep influencing anyone I know and I will ensure my company is as straight as it can be(i.e devoid of corruption and corrupt practices).

The third question, I think, is partly answered in the first paragraph above. I believe in achieving results and I want to meet my personal targets, but I will definitely avoid anything that hs to do with corruption and dishonesty.

I wish other NairaLanders ( and other Naigerians ) will take on this challenge and see what can happen to Nigeria. It may even take longer than five years but I believe we can make a positive change.

Thanks you so much friends.

i think the same way also

i use to be very tribalistic and just loved my people but now i love all nigerians

all i am doing now is to think positive about nigeria

i know one day GOD in heaven would make nigeria a safe haven for nigerians

i know that as a fact

pls no one should reply to this tread and let it die out

this is because, this people are trying to rewrite history

Otunbakay:
Thanks alot, it baffles me how some people choose to be so tribalistic, it makes me weep 4 our dear country. Any way i pray that God will change our orientation so that we can really leave the woods.

reindeer:
NIGERIA REALLY HAS NO HOPE.
Are these the youth of Nigeria?people who are supposed to be the future of the country arguing like tribal monkeys?
Can't you guys see issues for once without resorting to tribal bashing?It just shows how underdeveloped some of these brains are.
Even if your parents handed down tribal sentiments, you as educated youth who undoubtedly have friends across ethnic divides should be able to reason in a clearer, more objective and progressive manner.
Unfortunately, you resort to age-long tribal animosities that have held africa in chains of underdevelopment.
I am ashamed for you all.
If you have nothing sensible to say about this gruesome murder , shut up and keep your primitive brains to yourselves.
pssscheww!

why are u angry

God has already done it for nigeria

all the people in this forum that are tribalistic are all in dispora

the ones in nigeria are not this way

Andre Uweh:
But he writes out of ignorance. I only lecture him. He never knew that Biafran navy commander-Anuku was an Ika man.
Also, he said his Ika Obis has no time for Ohanaeze, which was also a lie. He claims to be a journalist, yet he is not well-informed. We have half-baked men parading themselves as journalists this days in Nigeria. What a shameful bunch.

i know but if he is delusional to see reason that ika is a tribe of the igbo nation or ethnic group then that's it

even after the facts and other things and he still does not see reason that's it
other ika people would see themselves as igbo

this is just one in a 100 thousand (population of ika about 100 thousand) among the real and main ika people

i think trying to tell him that he is igbo is just going no where


also in the north some fulanis call themselves southerners or yoruba but it is just 1 in a million so just forget about him
